Tracy, strassenmusiker Do you plan on posting your character trait posters on TPT? I

It went fabulous!  Yippee! strassenmusiker :)
We were reading Big Bushy Mustache from our anthologies.   Our purpose was to demonstrate how Ricky showed determination by describing his actions, words, thoughts, and feelings.   I began the lesson by playing this fabulous video that was sped up by a coworker's son to fit better in my lesson.  No matter what grade you teach this would be a wonderful way to introduce and build upon the character strassenmusiker trait of determination.  It helped bring the character trait to life for my kiddos!  And strassenmusiker they LOVED it!! They were cracking up and so was my principal.
We discussed how a character's actions, words, and feelings give us information about the character.  Once we have that information we can make decisions about what kind of personality the character has and pick the character trait.  Our focus was searching for the details to support a character trait.
The students had a deep understanding of what determination was and how we find supporting details for character traits.  I honestly think using the polar bear video and familiar characters helped my students fully connect strassenmusiker with the lesson!  
The turtle is cute and a great idea. Glad your observation went well! scottk323@gmail.com Reply Delete strassenmusiker
